Maximum nodes you ever monitored
-
Hello everyone!
I'm new to Network Management and I'm entering on a project which objective is create a structure to monitor more than 10k nodes. What do you think of NetXMS as a solution to this case? Can it support it, provided that we will use a cluster of computers?
Cheers!

Hi!
NetXMS server can support 10k nodes (and even more). Server process itself will consume significant amount of memory (can be few gigabytes) but should not put high load on CPU. It can generate lot of network traffic, but you can control it by choosing longer polling intervals for less important information. Most load will be on database - there will be tenths of thousands of tables (NetXMS creates 4 database tables for each monitored node) with lot of inserts. You should be able to fine tune database of your choice.
From the practical experience, I personally do not know installations of 10k nodes, but one of our customers (which we provide with technical support) runs system that monitors about 3k nodes, and it runs on single Linux server (with secondary server on cold standby with database synchronized) with 8GB RAM and quad core CPU and PostgreSQL as backend database (located on same server).Best regards,
Victor
